Battery Stopped Charging at 50%

Hi Xavierbaby and welcome.

Check to see if you have the Battery Care Function enabled.

If you have this feature installed, to make the battery last longer - particularly if you use the Vaio plugged in most of the time - you can choose to stop charging at 50%, 80% or 100% depending on the version you have installed.

Go to Start -> VAIO Control Center -> Power Management -> Battery (or Battery Charge Functions).

You can choose which maximum charge level you want to use.
